Comatie Waterfall Camp
A Spacious Mountain Escape
Inside a Private Game Camp

An Unplugged Valley Experience
Under the Stars & Near the Falls

If camping in nature, under the stars, and close to a waterfall is what you long for, this is the perfect place. Situated in the Engelsedraai Valley, this spacious campsite sits inside a 40-hectare game camp between the mountains, where wild animals roam freely. Reached via an 11km gravel road from the R541, it is ideal for either a couple looking for a romantic getaway or a group of family and friends who appreciate nature. Please note that guests must bring their own drinking water for the campsite area, and strictly high-clearance or 4x4 vehicles are needed to reach the camp, especially during the rainy season when the road gets very slippery.

The Campsite Setting,
Waterfall & Forest Walk

Surrounded by trees with great birdlife, the campsite is highly spacious and can take up to 4 families (4 stands). If you pick the perfect spot to put up your tent, you will have a partial view of the waterfall.

The waterfall itself is located just 50 meters from the campsite. A beautiful and relaxing walk through the forest leads you to a natural pool perfect for a swim. The mountain water is very cold and safe to drink right at the waterfall, as it comes straight out of the mountain.

Traditional Amenities &

  • Hot Water: Guests must make a fire for the "donkey" boiler to heat up the water.
